Does anyone know if this has been reported yet, or how long these issues last for?

I’ve been having a go at using Stable Diffusion through Easy Diffusion. I made a png with alpha for img2img, but the transparency seems to be getting replaced with black, ruining the image. I was expecting the transparency to get replaced with noise. Are there any good fixes/workarounds?

• I don’t really want to add my own noise to the input image itself, because wouldn’t that make the randomness produced by stable diffusion useless?
• Could I manually script it to automatically layer the image over the noise, or over the image after a few steps in?
• I don’t have a dedicated graphics card yet, so I’m CPU only.

I don’t know much about graphics cards, but the framework laptop seems to offer an “AMD Radeon™ RX 7700S” and stable diffusion requires Linux ROCm.

It’s not completely clear if ROCm runs on AMD Radeon™ RX 7700S, so I was wondering if anyone had any experience with setting it up on framework.

When I try to turn off Use CPU in settings, it says "No compatible graphics card found!".

During the instillation, I got an error "hipErrorNoBinaryForGpu" which I looked up and found the command export HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0 which got me through the instillation.

I don't know much about GPUs, so thanks in advance for any help/advice!

I want to create a "gradual colour change" effect in Godot.

eg: some_set_font_color_func(Color8(255,n,n) where n gradually decreases to make the text fade from white to red.

I can't figure out what function I would use in place of some_set_font_color_func to change a font's colour.

Godot themes are somewhat confusing. Given some var var UI:control how would I set the colour of any font(s) contained within that node?

Any tips for creating memes using FOSS. I made this in Impress, then copy-pasted it into gimp, and it reduced the quality a lot.

In PowerPoint, you can just select everything, then right-click -> save as image, and it saves whatever you have selected rather than the whole slide. There doesn't seem to be a way to do that in Impress, but I realised you could copy-paste into Gimp and that would copy the objects as an image, so I've been making memes that way.

Baldur’s Gate 3 worked fine before. Now it returns to the game’s library page just before it would normally show the game’s logos.

We tried switching to proton experimental, as suggested by people who were having a similar issue back in August, but this gives the same result.

Has anyone been experiencing anything similar, or does anyone have any advice?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: I tried setting “gamemoderun --skip-launcher” or “--skip-launcher” as a launch option, but this didn’t work.

Ah. It's still called cake day over here.
Wasn’t sure if it had to be called something different on Lemmy.

I want to install Debian over an existing Debian install with an existing home partition in an encrypted lvm (to upgrade to testing), and I have been practising in a vm.

After trying to follow the advice on https://www.blakehartshorn.com/installing-debian-on-existing-encrypted-lvm/, I successfully reached the end of the installation, but when I try to boot into my system, I get the error(s) shown in the attached screenshot.

Any idea what I did wrong/need to do?

Edit: "sgx: There are zero EPC sections" is something that displayes when booting successfully into a machine that works too.
